Answer:
26 pencils were thrown away.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 = 8/40
1/4 = 6/32
add them together 18/40
26 were thrown out
Use elimination to create a one variable equation.
x-3y=15 -> 2x-6y=30
2x-6y=30
+(-2x-4y=10)
------------------
-10y=40
Then solve (for y in this case).
y=-4
Now we can use the value for y to solve for x.
x-3y=15 -> x-3(-4)=15 -> x=3
Use desmos.com/calculator and use the graph to figure out which one represents the function. Just type each one in individually and you will find your answer.
The given proportion is expressed as
y/5 = 7/8
If we crossmultiply, it becomes
y * 8 = 7 * 5
8y = 35
y = 35/8
y = 4.375
Rounding to the nearest tenth,
y = 4.4
